Large and widespread bug dispersal is different from traffic cams. And there are countermeasures (e.g., an in-car camera laser which would target surveillance cameras within line-of-site) which could nondestructively counter surveillance equipment.

Similarly, I was suggesting defenses which might simply emit signals or project a cone of silence where bots are detected.

I'm also not aware of any case being made for destruction of government property, say, where tracking devices have been found on vehicles (there are a few news stories concerning this), though I recall at least one in which the US government agency involved (the FBI) wanted its tracker back.
